Keyboard-based rescale in timeline

Post by Jkoseattle »

I saw a tutorial last week (which was done on a Mac and I'm PC) in which they selected a bunch of keyframes on the timeline and then hit some keystrokes to rescale them in and out. I can't find documentation on this feature anywhere, and I'm wondering if it's deprecated, or else Mac-only, or what. I tried finding it again on the video but it's very long and I couldn't trace it down. It was Mac anyway.

Anyone know how to do that?

It wouldn't just be a difference in OS, nor a depreciated functionality. If you can find it in the video, maybe we can shed more light.

Holding the ALT key with key frames selected click and drag Right spaces those key frames out click and drag left spaces the selected keys closer together. I believe on mac the key is called the option key.
If that's what you ment?
